Someone in my church posted about a family in need. They have 5 kids, and are temporarily living in a tent.
I thought, “Now, what do I have that people in a tent might need?”
Towels came to mind. So, I asked DD1 if she’d mind, if we went thru the towels, and donated some. She’s a sweet girl, and agreed.
We have a LOT of towels!
We easily agreed to donate 3 bath towels.
3 green hand towels, from my uncle, that we never even used. (His job is professional laundry, and sometimes thing are left over.)
Same with the 2 “lavender” hand towels. (I just thanked him, and took them. I didn’t have the heart to tell him they weren’t lavender!)
Looky here, a kitchen towel set. Still in the packaging…..
And 1 purple washcloth, just to test myself, to see if I could let it go…….
2 mismatched pillow cases.
And 2 journals, out of the 7 I still had. (Didn’t I de-clutter journals a while back???)
That was just a quick run thru of the CLEAN towels. There is still a hamperful in the laundry. We have WAAAAAAY too many towels!!
But less now! And less is more!
What a thoughtful idea. cheers

Thanks, Dolly. Sometimes I think I brag on myself too much.

Oh no you don’t! We have a general rule that pledges and donations are announced in order to motivate others to be charitable. It’s not bragging – your kindness will elicit kindness from others!
